About Our Logo
In Chinese culture, the image of the phoenix not only represents the harmony of humans and natural elements. In the Five Elements of Chinese medicine, the Red Phoenix is a mythical animal associated with the Heart, the “Emperor” of all the internal organs, and the Shen (the “Spirit” of the Heart), representing the spiritual link between the physical, mental and emotional aspects of the soul. The Pheonix here is incorporated into a symbol of Yin and Yang, representing the balance that forms the basis of health and well-being in Chinese medicine.

About Where We Work (land acknowledgement)
We’d like to acknowledge the land on which our three clinics operate. For thousands of years these have been the traditional lands of the Huron-Wendat, Seneca, Haudenosaunee, Mississauga Anishnabeg, and the Mississaugas of the Credit. The territories include land that falls under Treaty 13 and the Williams Treaties, as well as unceded land that is still being contested. Today, this area is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.
